Research seems to suggest that men are better at map reading
than women initially...but that women make better judgement
calls and remember more about routes so are less likely to get
lost.....
My experience, having tutored over 100 women is that confidence
is often an issue. This is where learning in a small group with
other who feel in the same boat can help.
So, come and join me on the next
'Women CAN Read Maps' course
running in just over a week from 1st-2nd Oct 2011.
This two day course will give you some of the skills to use maps to
navigate in the hills.
It is set in the beautiful village of Comrie in Perthshire.
It is aimed at beginners and those who lack confidence and want
to improve their hill skills.
The course is run on a friendly, informal basis with plenty of
chance to try things out. After a short theoretical input each
morning ( and coffee) we spend the rest of the days outdoors
put every thing into practice.
The cost for the two days is £80.
